a torpedo. The Irish Tines London
correspondent writes of it as follows
1.-The Brennan torpedo has, at last
been definitely approved of by the
authorities. Experiments with this
formidable weapon have been made at
Sheerness for two years; and the ex-.
haustive trials made have established
the value of his invention. The torpedo
is worked by two thin wires wound by
a stationary engine ashore. It can be
.steered with perfect accuracy for two
thousand yards, by night or by day, in
rough or smooth water. It weighs
nearly ton, and is thus able to carry an
unusually large explosive charge. Its
speed is 20 knots, and although the ex-
periments at Sheerness have all been
made at the Garrison Point Fort, it is
believed that the torpedo may be easily

The German Catholic Missions pub
fishes letter from Father Damien, the
missionary priest in the leper settle
ment at Molokai, which contains the
following passage:
''For about twenty years our most
distinguished physicians tried every
possible means to master this dreadful
disease. but all their efforts failed to
check the spread of the distemper.
About three years ago white man was
seized with leprosy. Being very wealthy
he preferred to go to Japan rather than
to submit to a lifelong exile in Molokai.
In Japan he continued for two years
course of hydrophatic treatment under
DR.. Goto. He returned hither accom-
panied by the son of DR.. Goto, with
every appearance of a perfect cure.
About the end of last year, the Health
Committee resolved to introduce under
the supervision of DR.. Goto, the Japan
ese treatment into the leper hospital,
which is in the charge of the franciscan
Sisters at Kakaako, near Honolulu.
Already then 1 felt inclined to go to
Honolulu to consult DR.. Goto about the
disease, which had already made havoc
with one of my ears. At that time,
however my superiors did not consider
the sep advisable, Last July. how
ever, 1 had occasion to personally satisfy
myself of the success which had attend
ed the treatment in question in the
hospital of the Sisters at Kakaako, and
to carefully observe it's method, which
consists in this: Every day the leper
has to take two baths in hot water in
which certain quantity of Japanese
medicine has been dissolved. After
every meal he has to take a small pill,
and an hour later an ounce of tea. pre-
pared from the bark of japanese tree
This is the whole treatment. Both
young DR.. Goto and the white patient,
of whom made mention above, have
assured me that in Japan many leper
has been completely cured by this treat
ment, Whatever truth there be in this.
statement. 1 must own that the i'm
provement during these six months in
the condition of many lepers, whose ILL
ness was already in a very developed
state, has been simply marvellous. I
think myself, therefore, justified in see
ing in this treatment glimmer of hope
for our poor outcast lepers of Molokai-..
King Kalakua and his Prime Minister
honored me with visit during my short
stay at the hospital at Kakaako, near
Honolulu. They told me it was their
intention to introduce the same system
of treatment in our great leper settle
ment. I look forward with satisfaction
to the day on which we shall receive a
steam boiler which may heat about Is
bath tubs at the same time.
ssFor few weeks have undergone
the treatment in question. At the same
time commenced the same treatment
with about 40 to so of my orphan chill
dren. We have already derived some
benefit from it. My work seems lighter
and my strength is returning. Last
Sunday, for instance, I said two masses
and preached during each without being
obliged to sit down and without feeling
particularly wearied."
